Leave a com­ment below, on this post, describ­ing your dig­i­tal dark­room pho­to work­flow on your iPad. Or if you don’t have one yet, describe how you think you’d use a diti­tal dark­room on your iPad.

Note which app you would like to win, should your entry be select­ed (iPhone, iPad, Doesn’t mat­ter)

Win­ners will be select­ed based on entire­ly arbi­trary cri­te­ria I’ve not estab­lished yet 🙂 Make your sub­mis­sion inter­est­ing and / or infor­ma­tive and you’ll have a bet­ter chance at col­lect­ing one of these sweet apps.

I’m just a “hob­by­ist” but love tak­ing pho­tos — par­tic­u­lar­ly live event/candid pho­tos — whether it’s at a con­ven­tion, a cir­cus, a con­cert or just around town. Often times these are out of town, or have some “down­time” that could be spent edit­ing pho­tos if you had a lap­top. The prob­lem is that car­ry­ing a lap­top can be bulky, heavy and a bit overkill if you just want­ed to do some quick edits.

Since get­ting the iPad, I bring it with me near­ly every­where — when­ev­er I have a few min­utes to spare, I can quick­ly down­load my RAW pho­tos using the cam­era kit, import them into a num­ber of apps and even upload them to Flickr all while “on the go.” A lot of the apps out there are VERY full-fea­tured, espe­cial­ly con­sid­er­ing the low price. FilterStorm(and Pro), Pho­toPad, Pho­to­shop Express.. and then of course the ‘fil­ters’ and effects apps like Plas­tic Bul­let, Pic­tureShow, Tiffen’s Pho­to FX Ultra, Tilt­shift­gen and Lens­flare HD. For $20, you can have a huge selec­tion of tools at your fin­gers that would oth­er­wise require an expen­sive desk­top appli­ca­tion. While they’re not quite a replace­ment for Pho­to­shop and Light­room, they’re VERY good for those times when you just don’t have access to those oth­er appli­ca­tions.

At Com­ic-Con 2010, I was able to take pho­tos, edit them and have them online in min­utes while wait­ing in line.. a task that oth­er­wise would nor­mal­ly have me just wait­ing in line and have to deal with edit­ing at the end of the day.

I’d love to try the FX Pho­to Stu­dio HD app — it’s one of the “FX” apps I haven’t had a chance to use.

I love the idea for the site (and have added it to my feed) — there are a num­ber of iphone “pho­to edit­ing” blogs out there, but most focus on iPhone-spe­cif­ic apps that use the built-in cam­era, not so much bring­ing in your own pho­tos (from a DSLR or oth­er cam­era) or just a quick overview of some of the apps, so I look for­ward to see­ing more about what’s out there
